On this day, Shi Xing left the Tan family before dinner, regardless of Tan Chi, Tan Yan and Yun Wu's attempts to keep him.

He felt that the Tan family should have a lot to say to each other, so he would not disturb them.

It was a rare opportunity to return to the residence for dinner. Their dinner time would probably be a quarter of an hour later than the Tan family's scheduled dinner time. Shi Xing went back and waited for dinner in the living room. When Chi Yao came out after finishing his official business, he walked into the living room and took a closer look. There were no children waiting for dinner obediently, only Shi Xing, who had used up most of his mental power and fell asleep due to exhaustion.

Chi Yao moved closer and touched Shi Xing's cheek. He did not deliberately sense it, but the mental fluctuations emanating from Shi Xing's body told him that his mental sea was still very stable.

It seemed that he had indeed learned his lesson and was controlling the amount of mental power he used every day.

Chi Yao's brows relaxed, and he rubbed Shi Xing's head.

He took his hand back, and several messages came flooding in, bombarding his communicator.

There were messages of thanks from his family.

There were also messages of thanks from senior officers of the Seventh Army.

Many people had thanked him, and because they didn't have Shi Xing's contact number, they all thanked Shi Xing here.

Chi Yao watched and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth that he didn't even notice, thinking, I'll show it to Shi Xing when he wakes up.

As soon as the thought fell, Shi Xing, who was not asleep, noticed something and sat up, rubbing his eyes.

"Well, Your Highness?"

"What time is it now?"

Shi Xing was dazed, "Have I slept for a long time?"

Seeing what Shi Xing was looking for, Chi Yao reached out and grabbed a pillow for him. Sure enough, Shi Xing reached out and took it naturally, and put his heavy head on the pillow in his arms, as if his neck was too sleepy.

"Not long, only ten minutes from the time you came back to now."

Chi Yao said gently, "You are too tired."

Shi Xing still remembered to promise, and subconsciously clarified, "I didn't drain my mental power..."

Chi Yao pressed his head with his big hand, so that his whole back was supported by the sofa, and nodded, "I know." "

It's similar to the mental power fluctuations you experience every night after treatment."

Shi Xing was relieved that he was not misunderstood.

Chi Yao realized something later and asked, "Are you afraid that I will hold you responsible for draining your mental power?"

Shi Xing muttered, "No."

The blue star who only speaks the truth when he is sleepy said, "I'm afraid you will be angry."

"I don't want you to be angry."

Chi Yao felt that his heart was pricked by something, and he didn't even realize how bored he was. He asked, "Why?"

Shi Xing was also sleepy, and answered whatever Chi Yao asked.

"I just don't want to."

"I'm already so busy, and I'm so difficult to raise, and I still make you angry..." Shi Xing stopped muttering for a moment, and shook his head with special sincerity, and shook his head again, "No, it's not good."

"No!"

The tone was loud, and if you didn't know, you would think he was talking about himself.

Chi Yao's lips curled up, inexplicably feeling good after hearing this. He reached out to touch Shi Xing's head again. After patting it, the long fingers seemed to scratch the boy's face inadvertently.

The smooth nails brushed against the skin, and the touch was strange. Shi Xing shuddered slightly, but before he had time to think about it, he was attracted by Chi Yao's next sentence, "Many officers of the Seventh Army are thanking you, but they don't have your contact number. They sent it to me. Do you want to see it?"

Hearing someone praising him, Shi Xing became excited, "Can I see it?"

Chi Yao turned on the communicator, called up the holographic projection and pushed it in front of Shi Xing.

Shi Xing tried to open his eyes wide and read them one by one, not wanting to miss a single word.

Chi Yao did not wake him up, but Shi Xing looked at the various praises and became more energetic.

While watching, he also gave feedback to Chi Yao, "Your Highness, your subordinates are so good at talking."

"Wow, this one is also good at balancing things."

"I still remember this one, one of the vice marshals of the Seventh Army, isn't he? An officer with a very good personality."

"Hey, I feel embarrassed by their praise."

Chi Yao laughed, "I think you enjoy it." Shi

Xing twisted his body and laughed, not hiding it, "That, too, is a little bit."

"Who doesn't like to hear others praise themselves, right!"

"Hee~"

Quite conceited.

Chi Yao shook his head, and Xu Jin and Yan Changyue happened to come and announced that dinner was ready.

Shi Xing ate a lot in the evening. Before dinner, he was reluctant to let go of the projection screen until Chi Yao promised to let him continue watching after dinner. Shi Xing buried his head and focused on the dining table.

It has been a long time since we had dinner together. Shi Xing explained, fearing that everyone would be shocked, "I feel very tired after using up my mental energy, so I will eat more."

Chi Yao glanced at Shi Xing and did not comment.

Xu Jin was kind and afraid that Shi Xing would feel embarrassed, so he exposed Fu Qing's shortcomings, "How much do you eat? When General Fei followed His Highness, Fu Qing was just in his early twenties when he first came, right~" Xu Jin made a circle with both hands, "The bowls he used back then were all this big, he was not full, he was growing up."

Shi Xing was surprised, "Such a big bowl, you eat one bowl?"

Fu Qing was not embarrassed at all, "No, three bowls."

Shi Xing almost choked.

After he calmed down, Chi Yao picked up a piece of stone star fish, a specialty of the North, with chopsticks and gave it to Shi Xing. He tapped the edge of his bowl and said, "Eat it. Didn't you say you were hungry?"

"You are just getting started. Bi Zhou can eat more than you now. What do you want to compete with the imperials? The imperials are much more durable than you."

Shi Xing understood and let him eat as much as he wanted.

After eating a full meal, he huddled up to the sofa to read the news. He read every message carefully before telling Chi Yao that he could close the holographic projection.

"Your Highness, I am so happy."

Shi Xing sat on the sofa. After the excitement, he said to Chi Yao softly.

Chi Yao was reading a document. Shi Xing didn't want him to reply. He muttered to himself.

"I helped Lieutenant General Tan Chi. I thought I couldn't do it."

"I felt a little guilty during that, but I always persisted. There would always be different situations."

"Sure enough, it's the same this time."

"Your Highness..."

The ending tone became lighter and longer.

Shi Xing's voice was almost inaudible, "Do you think I can cure you one day?"

"That kind of, completely."

"Your Highness, your mental power level is too high..."

It sounded like a complaint, but also like a murmur.

"The Empire should definitely develop a set of spiritual power ratings exclusively for the royal family..."

"How is it possible that someone is SSS-level from the beginning."

"That's too difficult for the doctor..."

"Well, but I still hope that I can cure you. Can I? I should be able to, right?"

"I'll try my best..."

When Shi Xing's voice could no longer be heard, Chi Yao had just finished signing the documents on his hand and turned his head to see that the child had fallen on his sofa and fell asleep.

He moved closer to take a look and confirmed that he was fast asleep.

Chi Yao smiled, then thought of something and his smile faded a little. He said softly, "Some things are not enough just by hard work."

What can be changed by hard work is luck, and what cannot be changed by human power is fate.

Chi Yao had understood this truth a long time ago.

Recalling some past events, Chi Yao's eyes were dazed for a moment. He had not expected that Shi Xing, who was not completely asleep, would speak again, "How do you know if you don't try?"

Every word was very laborious, and it seemed like an unconscious answer.

Chi Yao was stunned for a moment, and looked at Shi Xing again. He stopped talking to disturb him, and Shi Xing's breathing became even again, and he fell asleep again.

This time, Chi Yao followed his heart and scratched Shi Xing's cheek with two fingers.

The skin under his fingers was soft, just like the feeling Shi Xing brought him at the moment.

Shi Xing woke up in his room the next day, and he forgot how he came back.

He felt vaguely that he had forgotten something. His memory was not good in the morning. When he got out of bed and washed up, he put this doubt behind him.

Since Tan Chi's withered spiritual threads can still grow, the goal of the subsequent treatment work is very clear.

However, after the initial period, Shi Xing's own courses must also keep up, so corresponding adjustments were made. In the morning, Chi Yao taught Shi Xing some analysis of the imperial situation and simple internal affairs construction. In the afternoon, Shi Xing went to the Tan family next door for treatment. In the evening, Shi Xing treated Chi Yao again.

And through the first experiment, the treatment of Shi Xing and Yun Wu also had a priority.

Shi Xing's spiritual power was not enough, and Yun Wu's spiritual power level was not enough.

Therefore, when Tan Chi had problems with his spiritual sea, Yun Wu's spiritual power was used first to treat it. When Tan Chi's spiritual sea no longer absorbed Yun Wu's spiritual power, it was replaced by Shi Xing's.

In this way, two months passed in a flash, and Shi Xing's life in the North was orderly day after day.

After staying there for a long time, sometimes Shi Xing even felt that he would live in the North permanently in the future.

During this period, there was naturally time to rest. The Tan brothers and sisters took Chi Yao Shi Xing to see the aurora and the ice and snow forest. Every place they went was a scenery they had never seen before. Although the schoolwork and treatment tasks were not easy, Shi Xing felt very happy every night when he went to bed. His life was fulfilling and full of hope.

Tan Chi was also getting better.

His personal character was taciturn at the beginning, but he gradually got rid of the gloom and became more cheerful.

After getting to know him, Shi Xing found that Tan Chi was very knowledgeable and knew a lot of things.

Sometimes he didn't know how to do the homework assigned by Chi Yao, and the Tan brothers and sisters would explain it to him. The first time was new, the second time was familiar. Tan Chi was the one who understood the economy and politics the best, and he also knew the situation of the empire the best . Over time, Shi Xing kept clinging to this amateur teacher and asked him questions whenever he needed to.

In fact, Yun Wu's partner, Tan Wen, was also proficient in these.

However, Tan Wen was a powerful officer in the Seventh Army, helping Tan Baishan to handle a lot of military affairs. Except for dinner time, he was rarely seen.

Oh yes, Shi Xing's patient was actually more than one Tan Chi.

Two officers joined in the process. Their spiritual seas were also injured by star beasts. They could not be healed. None of them were serious, but their levels were high and Yunwu could not treat them. After Tan Baishan consulted Chi Yao, with Chi Yao's approval and Tan Chi's concession, Shi Xing treated them. It was not very difficult.

But these two officers were especially grateful to Shi Xing.

Shi Xing then discovered that the overall atmosphere of the Seventh Army was also very good.

Harmony, friendship, equality and mutual assistance were not only the case for Tan's family. The cohesion between the soldiers of the Seventh Army was also a state of unity that Shi Xing had never seen before.

Shi Xing liked this harmonious atmosphere very much.

Days passed, and time finally came when the spiritual threads in the middle layer of Tan Chi's spiritual sea were fully restored.

And Shi Xing's initial guess was correct. Tan Chi's level of mental power was higher than Xiang Fei's.

As he recovered, Shi Xing entered the inner layer of his spiritual sea and gradually became more strenuous.

I don't know how long the treatment can last, but it most likely depends on how much Shi Xing's mental strength has grown.

As the treatment became more difficult day by day, Chi Yao also noticed this situation and began to ask Shi Xing every day, preparing to stop once Shi Xing felt powerless.

But he didn't wait until this day.

Earlier than this day was Yun Wu's inquiry.

One day, Yun Wu suddenly asked Shi Xing, "The treatment has become a lot more difficult recently, right?"

Yun Wu actually knew this, and Shi Xing nodded.

"Are you almost at your limit?"

Shi Xing didn't want to disappoint them. "I can still hold on now."

Yun Wu lowered his eyes, which meant it was almost there.

Yun Wu suddenly asked, "Do you still have your beast core?"

Shi Xing shook his head. The treatment consumed too much energy. While he was growing rapidly, his beast core consumption was also more intense than before. Two weeks ago, he absorbed the last beast core he had.

This evening, Chi Yao came to pick Shi Xing up and took him home, and they had dinner at Tan's house.

During the dinner, Yun Wu asked Shi Xing, "Have you ever absorbed a fresh beast core?"

Shi Xing was stunned for a moment, and finally shook his head.

In fact, he had absorbed it in his previous life, but it was too long ago, and he could no longer remember what it felt like.

Or perhaps, that feeling was thrown away along with the bad memories of the past.

Yun Wu: "I remember, they were very different."

"The beast cores obtained on the black market are very different from those of the star beasts just killed. Even if they are both S-level, the high-level energy in the beast cores of the latter is very...active." Yun Wu described.

"That kind of energy that is easy to dissipate is also the energy that can best nourish our spiritual sea."

Yun Wu turned to Chi Yao, "Your Highness, Shi Xing will need fresh beast cores sooner or later. Do you have any relevant plans?"

Chi Yao did have one, but not now, he would talk about it after returning to the imperial capital.

Because the First Army is in the imperial capital, to get fresh beast cores for Shi Xing now, the army must be deployed.

After hearing this, Yun Wu said, "Don't we have them now?"

Shi Xing was stunned.

Yun Wu boldly suggested, "Anyway, sooner or later, we will need beast cores to increase our abilities. It just so happens that the beast cores of the star have been used up. Your Highness, the Seventh Army can provide Shi Xing with fresh beast cores."

"We will be in the northern border, bringing them in from the border line and deploying and capturing them over the northern border, just like when the Seventh Army provided me with them in the past."

"Kill a star beast for Shi Xing to absorb?"

Almost as soon as the words fell, Chi Yao understood the deep meaning behind this proposal.

This was not something Yun Wu could decide, but Yun Wu could say it at the table, and no one objected, because this was the final result after the collective discussion of the negotiators.

It was just that Yun Wu chose to propose it.

The purpose was also simple.

Shi Xing is having a hard time treating Tan Chi now, so they want to use fresh beast cores to nourish Shi Xing to see if Shi Xing's ability can grow to the point where he can completely cure Tan Chi before they leave.

As soon as this thought came to his mind, Chi Yao turned to look at Tan Baishan and Mrs. Campbell, who bowed their heads respectfully in return.

Their attitude was straightforward, implicitly acknowledging his guess.

Chi Yao: "Do you have a plan?"

Yun Wu did not hide it, "There are currently two star beasts outside the border where the Seventh Army is stationed, both of which are close to S-level and are not mutants. We can bring one in first, and if it's not enough, the other one will be kept as a backup."

The plan can be said to be quite detailed.

And they must have been well prepared before they dared to mention it in front of him.

Even the star beasts are available. This is definitely not something that can be done today just by thinking about it the day before.

Chi Yao glanced at Shi Xing, who was confused and didn't understand the sharpness in their words.

This time, Chi Yao didn't ask Shi Xing's opinion and made the decision directly.

"Okay, then get ready and kill one first to try."
